CONCERT: All Dvořák! WMP Season Finale
Music Director ANNA BINNEWEG conducts the Washington Metropolitan Philharmonic in a compelling ALL DVOŘÁK program at the final concert of our 53rd season.
The concert is 3 p.m. at the Geo. Washington Masonic National Memorial, 101 Callahan Drive, Alexandria, VA on Sunday May 18th. Free parking.
Celebrating the timeless legacy of Antonín Dvořák, the Washington Metropolitan Philharmonic joins forces with the talented musicians of our Youth Orchestra (WMYO) for an unforgettable side-by-side concert. Showcasing the depth and breadth of Dvořák’s oeuvre, the program features his beloved Cello Concerto in B minor featuring virtuoso cellist AMIT PELED. The orchestras shine in a lively rendition of Dvořák’s Slavonic Dance No. 1, capturing the folkloric spirit and rhythmic vitality of this beloved collection. Concluding the concert with Symphony No. 8 in G major, both ensembles unite in a grand finale, bringing Dvořák’s lyrical melodies and lush orchestrations to life with passion and unity.
As with the previous two WMP concerts, this is expected to be a SELL-OUT. Advance ticketing is required, and seats will now be selected at time of ticketing. https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?ticketing=wmpa
